Artist description Powerful lyrics, catchy grooves, grinding guitars, a little emotion and a lot of attitude - doesn't even begin to describe Inner Fear. The North Texas-based band slams out aggressive, energetic sounds that combine elements from a variety of music genres. Expect phat bass lines, hints of jazz percussion, gut-wrenching, low-tuned guitars, and pissed-off lyrics, all melting into one hell of a monstrous sound.

Press Reviews "North Texas-based Inner Fear plays a familiar form of hardcore that is too often mucked up by talentless Hollywood glam bands like the Deftones and Korn. The only difference is that, finally, someone got the formula right. "Strange Ways" is what Korn would sound like if they had balls. The grooves are powerful, yet catchy. The rhythms are brutal, yet inviting. And the vocals, while ranging from hardcore bellowing to Korn-esque whispers, tie it all together in a pill that slides down smooth. The band's influences are not limited to West Coast hardcore, however. Though the title track relies on this recipe, the B-side "3 Seconds" clearly shows the band's metal roots with tips of the hat to the likes of Sepultura. I see big things in the future for the guys of Inner Fear." - by Maverick, Editor, Fitshaced Magazine. (www.fitshaced.com)
